  • How Can We Make the Government to Be Accountable? a Case Study of Macao Special Administrative Region
    How can we make the government to be accountable? A Case Study of Macao Special Administrative Region Eilo YU Wing-yat and Ada LEI Hio-leng Department of Government and Public Administration University of Macau Introduction Accountability, which refers to the answerability and responsibility of government officials, is generally considered essential to the achievement of good governance (Moncrieff, 1998). However, the operationalization of accountability is an unresolved issue. In other words, the question of how we make officials truly answerable and responsible to the people is still under debate. Rodan and Hughes (2014) summarize four approaches to understanding the constitution of accountable government: namely, liberal accountability, democratic accountability, moral accountability, and social accountability. Accordingly, accountability is the interplay between government officials and the people through these four approaches, which can help us to understand the extent to which officials are answerable to and sanctioned for their acts. Thereby, accountability may not have a real operational definition because, by nature, it is contextual and shaped through government-mass interactions. This paper aims to understand accountability by examining the case of the Macao Special Administrative Region (MSAR) through an application of Rodan and Hughes’ four approaches to accountability. Its main purpose is to study the political interplay between the Macao people and government for the purpose of making a more accountable government. Its argument is that liberal and democratic accountabilities are not well institutionalized in Macau and that, instead, the MSAR government relies mainly on moral accountability to socialize the public. Leaning toward the liberal approach, the MSAR government has been trying to socialize the moral standards of the Macao masses in order to guide the public’s demand for accountability.

  • Perspectives Chinoises
    cefc perspectives chinoises Centre d’études français Press Meeting sur la Chine contemporaine 31/07/2009 POLITICS AND SOCIETY 1. After the Xinjiang riots Media coverage on Xinjiang after the riots is widely noted on mainland news and magazines. Most reports focused on the damages resulted from the riots, while being vague in examining the root causes. For a few pieces that attempt to look into the issues, they mostly turn to unemployment and other social and economic problems in Xinjiang and the infiltration of terrorism. China Newsweek made it the cover story for two consecutive issues (China Newsweek, Jul 13 & 20 Issue)1. It ran a number of articles that gave in-dept accounts of the riots and terrorism in the region, which media rarely talked about. Worth noting is a feature article on China Newsweek, which look at the confusion of Uighur youth with identity in the complex economic and political reality in Xinjiang and in a wider part of China. Through the story with a 16 year-old Uighur (who is a half-Han and half Uighur), it presents a picture how cultural, social and economic tensions stand between Han and Uighurs. Oriental Outlook’s article accused western media and overseas forces of politicizing an ordinary case to an incident of ethnic conflict (Oriental Outlook, Jul 16 Issue)2. The view has been widely presented in state media’s editorial and commentary. For instance, in response to the accusation of China’s ethnic policy, a university professor argued in an op ed article on Global Times that resource exploitation, poverty and the wealth gap are not exclusive in Xinjiang, but also in other parts of China.

    Acta geographica Slovenica, 51-2, 2011, 377–390 IMPACTS OF THE 4TH EAST ASIAN GAMES ON RESIDENTS' PARTICIPATION IN LEISURE SPORTS AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES – THE CASE OF MACAU, CHINA Yiping Li, Yim Mei Luk © WIKIPEDIA.ORG Macau hosted the 4th East Asian games in 2005 Yiping Li, Yim Mei Luk, Impacts of the 4th East Asian games on residents' participation in leisure sports and physical activities … Impacts of the 4th East Asian games on residents' participation in leisure sports and physical activities – the case of Macau, China DOI: 10.3986/AGS51304 UDC: 796.093:796.034.2(512.318) COBISS: 1.01 ABSTRACT: Sport events and the associated impacts are not new subjects for academic research, and the past enquiries have given substantial attentions to the economic impacts, especially those of tourism. Some important social issues have not been sufficiently investigated, including the extent to which sport events stimulate resident interest in leisure sports and the enhancement effects on public health. This study aims to address the past omissions through an examination of the 4th East Asian Games. It especially focuses on the extent to which the event stimulated resident participation in leisure sports and physical activities, so as to draw implications for public health enhancement and the ripple benefits for tourism. Combined methods were used for the investigation, which included questionnaire survey, in-depth interviews, documentary research and on-site observations. The results indicate that respondents who were highly attached to the sport promotion schemes of the event perceived most positive impacts and were more likely to support the city to host similar events in the future.
